Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A double tambour front filing cabinet is a vertical storage unit featuring two independent compartments enclosed by flexible, slatted wooden doors that slide open along internal tracks.

These utility cabinets were primarily constructed from solid hardwoods such as oak, with slatted doors backed onto heavy canvas cloth and fitted with steel or brass lock mechanisms.

Authentic period examples exhibit original flexible canvas backings behind the timber slats, stamped French lock mechanisms, and naturally aged oak grain with period-correct brass or iron pulls.

A tambour cabinet functions well in a modern study or hallway, offering concealed storage for contemporary office equipment, media accessories, or household linens while adding warm timber tones.

Clean the oak surfaces with a dry cloth and apply natural beeswax periodically, ensuring the track channels remain clean and free of debris to allow smooth operation of the slatted doors.
